Building Yoshi, Mario and Nintendo characters

Hello to everyone,
My brother wants to build a medium size Yoshi for his new house, but we don't find any instructions to do it.
¿Can someone help us?
Thanks in advance

@spaceinvader1979 What does your brother consider medium size?
6 inches? 1ft? 2ft?
Does he want it as a 3D model or a mosaic style?

I can't honestly see anyone having instructions, but you will need to be a bit more descriptive for anyone to be able to assist here.

Would the brick built Brickly be a good starting point?

^or #3724 with not as many modifications as you may think.

^ Thats the set I was thinking of but I was feeling to idle to look it up. Yellow card for me.

Check out Nick Jensen's post of Super Smash Bros: Peach's Castle which was built in collaboration with Dan Church and Casey McCoy.

A 70cm 3d Yoshi may be a hell of a lot bigger and more brick intensive than you first imagine. Check out Dirk VH's 60cm yoshi and other characters here

If you hunt through mocpages and Flickr you will find other great examples but they do tend to be smaller. Then comes the next great challenge of backwards engineering them, trying to work out the builders techniques is something I love doing.
